Dewey Square mural to be replaced in August

Starting next month the Os Gemos mural in Dewey Square will come down. Initially put up in July of 2012, the mural is now withering and fading so officials have decided it’s time for something new.

Charlie McCabe, director of public programs for the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway Conservancy, said to Boston Magazine last month,“We are looking to either remove it or replace it sometime in the fall…We are hoping to announce what the new project on the structure will be by August.”
